In response to overwhelming demand from fans, PepsiCo announced today that they will re-launch their iconic Crystal Pepsi – a clear version of the original formula which debuted in the '90s – for a limited time this summer.

Beginning July 11 in Canada and August 8 in the United States, 20-ounce bottles of Crystal Pepsi will hit shelves at major retailers for a suggested price of $1.79.

PepsiCo has been in the news quite a bit this past week after announcing their return to the original aspartame-sweetened Diet Pepsi formula, a semi-controversial decision that was also reached in direct response to consumer demand. The return of Crystal Pepsi, however, is purely nostalgia-driven.

To kick off the Summer of Crystal Pepsi and generate hype, PepsiCo is launching an online game called The Crystal Pepsi Trail, inspired by the beloved '80s/'90s computer game The Oregon Trail. Starting July 7, users will be able to log on to crystalpepsi.net to play The Crystal Pepsi Trail and receive a full dose of bittersweet '90s-era nostalgia.

"We've always had a special place in our heart for Crystal Pepsi, and there has been a huge groundswell of support to bring it back," said Stacy Taffet, Senior Director of Marketing for PepsiCo.

"What better way to celebrate this iconic '90s cola than to introduce a new take on one of the most beloved games of the decade?" she added. "Totally rad!"
